It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

RE: The verdict on Tomorrow's Modern Boxes

We may not disagree. A healthy industry must: (1) create value, (2) sell its product in a form that consumers value most highly, so they will be willing to pay as much as possible for it, and (3) allocate revenues in a way that insures that those who can create value have an incentive to keep doing so. Society can and should subsidize the performing arts imo, but that doesn't reduce the importance of these three principles.
When you say consumers shouldn't pay the same to listen to one song or 100, you raise an important and complicated issue we won't resolve here, i.e., how should consumers pay for music. But I stand by principle no. 2 above in that context.
